Ip Settings; Performing The Initial Configuration - Cisco Catalyst 9404R Switch Hardware Installation Manual

IP Settings

IP Settings
To set up the switch, you need to assign an IP address and other configuration information necessary for the
switch to communicate with the local routers and the Internet.
You will need this information from your network administrator:
• Switch IP address
• Subnet mask (IP netmask)
• Default gateway (router)
• TFTP Server
